have been busy cleaning here and going through alot of pops things like clothes and shoes and getting rid of the old crappy look ones or ones that dont fit. sold and gave away some items since this morning. have run out of energy now though so i dont think ill be doing much more except waiting for 3 more pickups

Re: not coping

@outlander it is good to be home and spend time with H and the kids. Izzy has not left my side! Just been busy doing the washing.

ECT has made my memory lag behind, just trying to catch up with everything, I didn't realise it was that bad.

Hoping the 3 more pickups happen soon hun and then you can have a well earned rest.

Re: not coping

washing never ends hey @Snowie
i wouldnt worry about trying to catch up on everything or remember everything. perhaps a memory lag isnt the worst thing.

i dont mind waiting for pickups as long as they turn up. im not doing much else today. i wont lay down or sleep or anything. ive just put criminal minds on for a while.

Re: not coping

No washing never ends @outlander 😒

No a memory lag might not be such a bad thing, just need to remember the online shopping I did for the kids b'days coming up.

Criminal minds sounds like a nice warm indoor activity!

Re: not coping

Got D's birthday very soon and then S's birthday in about 6 weeks so still got plenty to work out. Have a party booked for S but because of covid, not sure if it can go ahead or not. I guess time will tell.

Hoping the next two pickups are soon hun, then you can relax @outlander

Re: not coping

yeah my sisters milestone birthday is about 6 weeks away too but because hers is a milestone and covid has ruined a big party we are doing a few smaller parties for her (family split between 2 and friends into a third party) so itll be a big day but im sure one for her to remember as well which is whats suppose to happen

only 1 more pickup to go so far unless something else sells/free item gets picked up.
i did have a lot for sale but a lady asked me what else i was selling after saying she would like one item and she ended up picking out 5 other things off the things i had for sale/free! so i was able to get rid of some things quite quickly thankfully.
